Like I said I have posted many post on this topic and I will repeat a post that I think tells an accurate assumption of what is going on in the hospitals on the U.S. east coast.
I am in the health field........My employee's, who is a nurse, son-in-law who is a nurse practitioner at a hospital in Charleston SC told her that the CDC / Gov. has instructed the hospital not to test for swine flu unless the symptoms were critical. Many test have been coming back positive with instructions not to disclose information to the public.
This was verified by another ATS member XOXO Stacie with a source working at a facility in North Carolina.
What your source in SC does not even remotely resemble what is happening here in New England hospitals. I have quite a few friends who are in the health care field and not one of them has been directed by CDC or any govt officials to not report patients testing positive for the virus.
Why on Earth would the CDC's instructions differ so significantly in different regions of the country? They wouldn't.
